Shadow in the Sea

Readers will return to Windwaithe Island once again. When sixteen-year-old Sadelyn Hanson washes up on the shores of Windwaithe Island, her beauty and the strange marks on her wrist make superstitious locals suspect she is a mermaid. Feigning amnesia, Sade hides a far worse secret: she was sailing to her own murder trial when she was thrown overboard by the real killer, the cunning and cruel Captain Westwood.

Sade's quiet effort to rebuild her life on the island is threatened when she meets an actual young merman. Unable to speak his language, Sade still longs for the warm companionship he offers, despite the locals' dire legends about merfolk and their dark magic. But her confused feelings for the impossible boy become the least of her problems when Captain Westwood's ship docks at Windwaithe. With nowhere to escape, Sade must trust in the one person who doesn't fear the merfolk. A woman who had dealings with them herself—years ago

Jane Eyre. The first book I ever really "got". Loved it.
Tale of Two Cities
Twilight. My non-reader daughter read this series in less than a week. This book taught me all about hooks.
King of Attolia. Loved the smartness of this book.
Scriptures. My daily meditation.

first book i ever really found a love for romance was forbidden sea and I'm not just saying that. it is what made me realize that books can take you places no movie or TV show could ever go humm i would say the animorph series was what got me thought some of my hard times and a book based of one of my fav video games the legend of Zelda a link to the past it has a romance that just pulls at my heart strings and the shapeshifter's secret was a new twist that was awesome and finally bran hambric i love the story and fantasy feel you get when you read it any way there are my five books. ^.^
